MANTAR's new album, Post Apocalyptic Depression, is a raw, stripped-back response to their previous, highly produced work. Guitarist Hanno Klänhardt describes it as a return to their punk roots with a "quick and dirty" recording process using minimal gear and little planning. Embracing the beauty in defying expectations, the album’s opener, “Absolute Ghost,” embodies their energetic, visceral punk 'n' roll sound, perfect for live performances. The album’s haunting cover by Aron Wiesenfeld links back to their debut Death By Burning, symbolizing a full-circle moment for the band. The title captures the exhaustion and disillusionment after mass hysteria - a sense of burnout that’s both deeply relatable and darkly catchy.
